Effective solutions for a healthier life


Everyone wants to lead a healthier life, right? But actually getting out there and doing it, well that can be a bit more difficult. There are lots of things that can stop us from living optimally from our own minds to work obligations and even the equipment you do or do not use.

In this post, we’re going to deal with the latter and look at some simple product solutions that can make leading a healthier life a whole lot easier for the average person.

Water Bottles

They might be a pretty basic product, but they are undoubtedly an effective solution for maintaining better health. Why? Because dehydration can make you feel fatigued and thirst can make you feel hungry, which means if you don’t get enough water, not only may you feel less inclined to exercise, but you’ll probably feel even more inclined to overeat too. So, make sure you have a bottle and that you have it with you at all times. If you get one from Inter Branding you can even personalize it with your own name or a motivational slogan. Just make sure you sip regularly and never let yourself get dehydrated.

Water Filters

Of course, if you’re going to be drinking a lot of water, then you’re going to need a good water filter so that the old H20 tastes as good as possible. Use a brand like Britta and mix it with lemon or lime juice to give it some flavor and not only will you be fully hydrated throughout the day, but you also won’t feel quite so tempted to drink those sugary sodas to get a more refreshing taste.

Moisture Wicking Workout Clothes

One of the things that can make exercise uncomfortable for many people is the fact that it causes them to sweat, and if they're giving it all, the sweat is likely to be profuse. The good thing about moisture wicking clothing is that it will stop you from feeling all sweaty and gross so that you can keep on going for longer and longer periods of time.

Fitness Trackers

Some people consider fitness trackers like the Fitbit or Garmin to be little more than a weight loss and fitness fad, but if you’re a certain kind of person, they can be a really effective solution for a healthier life. For one thing, they enable you to see what you are actually doing right or (wrong) but much more importantly, they allow you to monitor your progress and even compete against friends and family members. Used as a motivational tool and a measure of your current fitness, they are fantastic at pushing you further and ensuring that you get the results you really want.

Omron Evolv

The Omron Evolv is a really great health-based gadget that enables you to check on the status of your blood pressure wherever you are whenever you want to. It is wireless, and it even lets you share your results with friends, family members and doctors, so if you have problems in that area, or you’re new to exercise, and you want to be careful about what you’re doing, it can be amazingly useful.

The Gourmia Soup Maker

There are few foods that are healthier than soup made fresh in a Gourmia Soup Maker. Soups are typically low in calories and high in water and fiber content, which means that they keep you fuller for longer and fill you with nutrients. The benefit of using this solution to make your own soup is that you can 100 percent control what ingredients are going into your soup so that you don’t end up eating too much sodium, for example, and you can experiment with different flavors, so you don’t get bored.

If you eat a small portion of soup before your main meal, it will fill you up enough that you don’t eat so many calories overall, and this is a real boon for those of you who are looking to watch your weight without going without.

Kettlebells

If you want to lose weight, tone up and keep your heart healthy, then there are few better tools to help you achieve this aim than the kettlebells. This effective exercise solution, which looks a bit like a cannonball with a handle, can be swung and lifted in various ways to burn fat, build muscle and make you stronger and it will do wall this in just three 20 minute sessions per week. Just make sure that you get initial training for a qualified kettlebell instructor, so you know how to work them without injuring yourself!

Baking Soda

Why is baking soda on the list? Not because cakes are an important part of a healthier lifestyle (although the occasional one certainly makes life easier), but because along with lemon juice and white vinegar, it is an excellent natural cleaning agent that will remove nasty odors and stains with ease. Use it instead of those nasty-chemical laden cleaning agents that you find in the grocery store and you will breathe more easily and according to some studies lower your risk of getting various cancers in the future.

Headspace

Headspace is an excellent app available for Android, IoS and your computer, which teaches you how to practice mindfulness meditation. If you live a fast-paced, stressful life, it is a great tool, which will enable you to get some...well headspace, learn how to calm your mind, fight off stress, soothe depression and generally just get through your days with a little more ease than you’re currently used to.

If you add as many of these effective solutions for a healthier life into your life and you use them on a regular basis, you will see results; whether you want to lose weight, maintain it, lower your blood pressure or improve your mental health, these things will help you to meet your goal, and probably even surpass it. They might not all be suitable for you, but where they are, make sure you use them - your health is the most important thing you have.
